Dinuclear rhodium(II) pivalate complexes with N-donor ligands

Eight dinuclear rhodium(II) complexes containing various, (primarily, polyfunctional) N-donor ligands in the trans position with respect to the Rh-Rh bond were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. In the Chinese-lantern dinuclear rhodium(II) pivalates, Rh^II ₂ (μ-OOCCMe₃)₄(L)₂ (L is 2,3-diaminopyridine (2), 7,8-benzoquinoline (4), 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (5), N-phenyl-o-phenylenediamine (7)), and Rh^II ₂ (μ-OOCCMe₃)₄L¹L² (3, L¹ is 2-phenylpyridine, L² = MeCN), the steric effects of the axial ligands are most strongly reflected in the Rh-N(L) and Rh-Rh bond lengths. The introduction of chelating ligands containing a conformationally rigid chelate ring leads to the cleavage of two carboxylate bridges to form the dinuclear double-bridged structure Rh^II ₂ (μ- OOCCMe₃)₂(OCCMe₃)₂(η²-L³)₂, where L³ is 8-amino-2,4-dimethylquinoline (6). The reaction of complex 7 containing coordinated N-phenyl-o-phenylenediamine with pyrrole-2,5-dialdehyde afforded the new Rh^II ₂(μ-OOCCMe₃)₄(L⁴)₂ complex (8) containing 5-(1-phenyl-1-H-benzimidazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde (L⁴) in the axial positions of the dirhodium tetracarboxylate fragment. The coordinated diamine differs in reactivity from the free diamine. The reaction of the former with the above dialdehyde affords the [1+1]-condensation product, viz., 5-{(E)-[(2-anilinophenyl)imino]methyl}-1-H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde, whereas the reaction of unsubstituted o-phenylenediamine gives 5-{(E)-[(2-aminophenyl)imino]methyl}-1-H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde (L⁵) . The reaction of the latter with Rh^II ₂(μ-OOCCMe₃)₄(H₂O)₂ affords the dinuclear complex Rh^II ₂(μ-OOCCMe₃)₂(OOCCMe₃)₂(η²-L⁵)₂ (9), which is an analog of complex 6 containing only two bridging carboxylate groups.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Heteronuclear {Fe-Ba,Fe-Sr} salicylate complexes. Synthesis,structure, and physicochemical properties

The reactions of strontium and barium salicylates with iron nitrate gave heterometallic complexes {[FeSr₂(Sal)₂(SalH)₂(NO₃)(DMA)₄]} _n (I) and {[FeBa₂(Sal)₂(SalH)₃(DMA)₄(H₂O)]} _n (II). The solid compounds are one-dimensional coordination polymers where bridging function is performed by salicylic acid residues and the NO ₃ ^? group (in I). The salicylic acid residues are coordinated in the chelating bridging mode, their denticity ranging from 2 to 5. The IR spectra, magnetic properties, and thermal behavior of the complexes were studied.

Synthesis,structure and properties of supramolecular Mn,Co, Ni and Zn complexes containing Salen-type bisoxime ligands

Four supramolecular complexes [MnL¹(H₂O)₂] (1), {[CoL²(OAc)(H₂O)]₂Co}·5CH₃CH₂OH (2), {[NiL³(OAc)(CH₃OH)]₂Ni}·2CH₃COCH₃·2CH₃OH (3) and {[ZnL²(OAc)]₂Zn}·CHCl₃ (4), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UV–Vis spectra and X-ray diffraction techniques. All the complexes have the trinuclear configuration except for Mn^II complex being mononuclear configuration. Every trinuclear complex contains two acetate ions coordinate to the three metal ions via a familiar M–O–C–O–M (M = Co, Ni, Zn) coordinated mode. Although complexes 1 and 3 display 1D supramolecular chains, the different coordination environments (mononuclear in 1, trinuclear in 3) provoke divergence in the structures and aggregations of the chain subunits. Complex 2 forms a 3D hydrogen-bonding supramolecular networks possessing a channel composing of six O–H···O hydrogen bonds, while complex 4 exhibits a 2D hydrogen-bonding supramolecular networks with the formation of “grottos” occupied by chloroform molecules through intermolecular hydrogen-bond interactions. The spectral properties of the title complexes have been further discussed in detail.     

Tetranuclear Heterometallic {Zn2Eu2} Complexes With 1‐Naphthoate Anions: Synthesis,Structure and Photoluminescence Properties

A series of new tetranuclear heterometallic Zn^II‐Eu^III complexes have been synthesized, that is, (bpy)₂Zn₂Eu₂(naph)₁₀ ( 1 ), (bpy)₂Zn₂Eu₂(naph)₈(NO₃)₂ ( 2 ), and (phen)₂Zn₂Eu₂(naph)₈(NO₃)₂ ( 3 ), and other ones, where naph^? is the 1‐naphthoate anion, bpy=2,2′‐bipyridyl, and phen=1,10‐phenanthroline. The solid‐phase complexes consist of large supramolecular ensembles due to stacking interactions between the aromatic ligands. Photoluminescence (PL) measurements were carried out to study PL spectra, lifetimes and quantum yields (QY) of the synthesized complexes at different temperatures. The external QY for the solid phases of complexes under UV excitation was found to exceed 20 %. It has been shown that partial replacement of naphthoate ligands in the coordination environment of Eu³⁺ by NO₃^? anions influences the PL properties. To investigate the behavior of these complexes in solvent, we dissolved complex 3 in MeCN, put it on a transparent glass as a substrate, and studied the PL properties at room temperature.     

Crystal structures and electrochemical properties of two Mn(II) 2-sulfoterephthalate complexes with N-donor ligands

Two Mn(II) sulfoterephthalate complexes, [Mn(HStp)(o-Phen)₂] (I) and [Mn(HStp)(2,2′-Bipy)₂] (II) (H₃Stp = 2-sulfoterephthalic acid, o-Phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, 2,2′-Bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine), were synthesized under hydrothermal condition. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that complexes I and II possess similar structure, in which the center Mn²⁺ ions are hexa-coordinated with one Hstpanion and two N-donor ligands. For both of them, the formation of 3D supramolecular structures are based on both H-bonds and π...π/C-H...π stacking interactions. Electrochemical properties of complexes I and II have been investigated by means of cyclic voltmetry, which shows that electron transfer between Mn(III) and Mn(II) in electrolysis is quasi-reversible process.     

Synthesis and spectral studies on platinum complexes with mono- and bidentate N-donor organic ligands

Platinum(II) complexes of types PtLX₂, PtL₂X₂, PtLX″ and the Pt(IV) complexes PtLXY (where L = mono- or bidentate organic ligand containing nitrogen donor atoms; X = Cl or Br; X′ = oxalate or malonate and Y = Br) have been synthesized and characterized from their elemental analysis, IR and X-ray photoelectron spectral data. The Pt 4f_7/2 binding energies indicate that 1,8-naphthalene-diamine ligand is a better donor of electron density to the metal than other ligands studied here. The Cl 2p_3/2 binding energies in the square planar Pt(II) complexes are observed in the range 198.8 ± 0.8 eV. The ν (PtCl) vibrations (ca 335 and 320 cm^?1) corresponding to two cis-Cl ligands were observed in the IR spectra.The extent of the interaction between cis-dichloro-bis-(theophylline)platinum(II) with calf thymus DNA has beenstudied. The UV difference spectra resulting from aquated Pt^II(theoph)₂-DNA interaction exhibit bands at 282 and 292 nm attributable to the change in the electron distribution of the base moieties induced by binding with platinum and due to the loss of base stacking. Melting profiles for the DNA samples treated with Pt-complex showed decrease in the melting temperature. Binding of the guanine residues of the DNA, involving probably (N7)-0(6) positions to the metal is implied.     

Heterometallic cubane-like {M2Ln2} (M = Ni, Zn; Ln =, Gd, Dy) and {Ni2Y2} aggregates. Synthesis, structures and magnetic properties

The syntheses, structural determinations and magnetic studies of tetranuclear M(II)Ln(III) complexes (M = Ni, Zn; Ln = Y, Gd, Dy) involving an in situ compartmentalized schiff base ligand HL derived from the condensation of o-vanillin and 2-hydrazinopyridine as main ligand are described. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that all complexes are closely isostructural, with the central core composed of distorted {M(2)Ln(2)O(4)} cubes of the formulas [Ni(2)Ln(2)(μ(3)-OH)(2)(L)(2)(OAc)(4)(H(2)O)(3.5)](ClO(4))(2)·3H(2)O (Ln = Y 1 and Gd 2), [Ni(2)Dy(2)(μ(3)-OH)(2)(L)(2)(OAc)(5)(EtOH)(H(2)O)(1.5)](ClO(4))·EtOH·H(2)O (3) and [Zn(2)Ln(2)(μ(3)-OH)(2)(L)(2)(OAc)(5)(EtOH)(H(2)O)](ClO(4))·2EtOH·1.5H(2)O (Gd 4 and Dy 5). The Ln(III) ions are linked by two hydroxo bridges and each M(II) ion is also involved in a double phenoxo-hydroxo bridge with the two Ln(III) ions, so that each hydroxo group is triply linked to the two Ln(III) and one M(II) ions. The magnetic properties of all complexes have been investigated. Ni(2)Y(2) (1) has a ferromagnetic Ni(II)Ni(II) interaction. A weak ferromagnetic Ni(II)Ln(III) interaction is observed in the Ni(2)Ln(2) complexes (Ln = Gd 2, Dy 3), along with a weak antiferromagnetic Ln(III)Ln(III) interaction, a D zero-field splitting term for the nickel ion and a ferromagnetic Ni(II)Ni(II) interaction. The isomorphous Zn(2)Ln(2) (Ln = Gd 4, Dy 5) does confirm the presence of a weak antiferromagnetic Ln(III)Ln(III) interaction. The Ni(2)Dy(2) complex (3) does not behave as a SMM, which could result from a subtractive combination of the Dy and Ni anisotropies and an increased transverse anisotropy, leading to large tunnel splittings and quantum tunneling of magnetization. On the other hand, Zn(2)Dy(2) (5) exhibits a possible SMM behavior, where its slow relaxation of magnetization is probably attributed to the presence of the anisotropic Dy(III) ions.     

Synthesis and characterization of {Ni(NO)}10 and {Co(NO)2}10 complexes supported by thiolate ligands

Nitric oxide is an important molecule in biology and modulates a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Some of its regulatory functions are exerted through interactions with redox-active elements, including iron, nickel, cobalt, and sulfur. Metalloenzymes containing [ nFe- nS] ( n = 2 or 4) clusters can be activated or inactivated by reaction with NO, affording dinitrosyl iron complexes. Studies of the NO chemistry of small-molecule iron thiolate complexes have provided insight into these biological processes and suggested probable intermediates. To explore this chemistry from a different perspective, we prepared nickel and cobalt thiolate complexes and investigated their reactions with NO and related compounds. We report here the first examples of anionic complexes containing {Ni(NO)} (10) and {Co(NO) 2} (10) units, the reactivity of which suggests possible intermediates in the interconversion of iron thiolate nitrosyl compounds. Our results demonstrate new chemistry involving NO and simple complexes of nickel and cobalt supported by thiolates, which have been known for more than 30 years. The use of mass balance methodology was key to their discovery. Among the novel complexes reported are (Et 4N) 2[Ni(NO)(SPh) 3] ( 2), from (Et 4N) 2[Ni(SPh) 4] ( 1) and NO, (Et 4N) 2[Ni 2(NO) 2(mu-SPh) 2(SPh) 2] ( 3), from 1 and NO (+) or 2 and Me 3O (+), (Et 4N)[Co(NO) 2(SPh) 2] ( 5), from (Et 4N) 2[Co(SPh) 4] ( 4) and NO, and [Co 3(NO) 6(mu-SPh) 3] ( 6), from 5 and Me 3O (+). In the syntheses of 2 and 5, NO could be replaced by the convenient solid Ph 3CSNO.

The structures of complexes 2, 3, and 5–10 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The isostructurality of complexes 3 and 4 was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction. The structure of the trinuclear {Ln₂Cd} metal core is stable and independent of the type of peripheral ligands coordinated to cadmium atoms. Photoluminescent properties of compounds 3 and 4 were studied.

Complexes and show a complicated 3D framework, while complexes and have a 2D network and a 1D helical chain structure, respectively. The results indicate that the multicarboxylate OA(4-) ligand can adopt varied coordination modes in the formation of the complexes and the influence of the N-donor ligand on the structure of the complexes is discussed. The photoluminescence properties of H(4)OA and were studied in the solid state at room temperature. Moreover, nonlinear optical measurements showed that displayed a second-harmonic-generation (SHG) response of 0.5 times of that for urea. The results suggested that the configuration and flexibility of the ligands play a key role in directing the related properties of the complexes.     

Tetranuclear Zn(II) complexes with compartmental and dicyanamido ligands: synthesis,structure, and luminescent properties

New tetranuclear compounds have been obtained by reacting binuclear complexes, [Zn₂L ⁿ (μ-OH)(H₂O)₂](ClO₄)₂, with sodium dicyanamide (HL ⁿ are end-off bicompartmental ligands resulting from condensation between 2,6-diformyl-p-cresol with N,N-dimethyl-ethylenediamine or 2-aminomethyl-pyridine). The complexes, [{L¹(μ-OH)Zn₂}(μ _1,5-dca)₂{Zn₂(μ-OH)L¹}](ClO₄)₂ (1) and [{Zn₂L²(μ ₃-OH)(dca)}₂](ClO₄)₂?·?2H₂O (2), have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The angular nature of the bridging dicyanamido induces the “M” shape of the tetranuclear cationic unit in 1. The tetranuclear cation, because of its particular shape, acts as a receptor toward one perchlorate ion, which is hydrogen bonded to the hydroxo groups. This tetranuclear unit in 2 has a defective heterocubane structure. The luminescence properties of the new tetranuclear complexes have been investigated.

New trinuclear carbonato-bridged copper(II) complexes: Synthesis,crystal structure,and spectroscopic properties

New trinuclear carbonato-bridged copper(II) complexes, [Cu₃(Bipy)₆(μ₃-CO₃)](CF₃SO₃)₄(H₂O)_0.5 (I) and [Cu₃(Phen)₆(μ₃-CO₃)](CF₃SO₃)₄(H₂O)_0.5 (II) (Bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine and Phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. In the trinuclear units, a carbonate anion triply bridges three Cu atoms in a μ₃-η¹:η¹:η¹-CO₃ mode. The environment around each copper(II) center is five-coordinate ranging between intermediate to distorted square-pyramidal geometry. In the crystal packing, the molecule of I is involved in a variety of intra/intermolecular non-covalent interactions such as intra/intermolecular stacking and CH···π interactions between the pyridine groups of the chelated ligand, leading to a one-dimensional arrangement of I. In complex II, the molecule is involved in both intra- and intermolecular Phen-Phen π-stacking, forming a three-dimensional network. The spectroscopic (IR, diffuse reflectance, and EPR spectra) properties and the preliminary results of magnetic measurements of both complexes are investigated and compared to other closely related trinuclear copper(II) complexes.
